Mother and child - David Sylvian

Shadows form knights and pawns
Upon the squares
Blood is drawn up from the well
Secret signs brought the crime
Right to your door
An innocent guilty as hell

Oh, the cot is open wide Damp with milk and honey Gone the mother and the child In Jesus name Should they be waiting there On my return I may run into their arms Walking on a razor's edge Unconcerned Game is lost again I'll never learn

From the album: Trout Mask Replica
